I like the clear tail lights too. But what I'm going to do is paint circles on mine (kind of like what Barry did) then black them out so only 4 little lights shine thru. Then I'm going to relocare my reverse light, and reflector to my rear bumper. Give my car sort of an RX-7 look to it.

How about keeping the tail lights as it is but getting that ugly amber color out and making them clear. Like my side markers and front turning signals. ;)

They do look ok on certain cars with certain colors.<P>I suppose in the beginning when they first started coming out people bought them to stand out. However now that they are made for practically any car and every "joe idiot" now has them, they have lost their appeal.<P>On the street and online they are now just widely reguarded as the worst kind of <B>Rice</B> and I tend to agree with them.

i have to admit, if they made them for mx-3's , i'd buy them, i agree that every fu*kin honda i see at my college has them and it 's really starting to look old! But, maybe i hate them because they don't make them for our cars, I DON"T KNOW? i think the all red rear lights looks really sharpe and is what i am goin to do with mine this summer , for now! <P>later :D

I have looked all over the net for clear tails for my car and of course was unsuccessful. It sux. My best friend just installed carbon fiber altezzas on his Eclipse and they look great. I does make me jealous. Maybe if all of us who would like to have clear tails emailed the company requesting that they be made for MX3's they might just produce it. Its a long shot but may be worth a try. What do you guys think?

well probably a lot of mx-3 owners emailed..but doesnt make sense, cause someone like moderator or someone else has to write a list with all the names who wants one and send it to company. That probably would work.

I think Aatezza lights would look great on mx-3s. No they are not ugly and are not out. The old all-clear lights are out and ugly, Altezzas give the car a newer, sportier, more aggressive look and its a shame Altezza doesn't make them for MX-3. It would really go with the angry torpedo look of the mx-3.
